Jan Hovener. (1936-2021) - Wittehuis met terras aan de Oudehaven kant

After his studies at the Rotterdam Academy, Hovener won the Talens Prize in 1959. Willem Sandberg, director of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, wrote about a self-portrait by Hovener as someone who could do something and had an incredible vision. Certainly for someone in their twenties. Originally, Hovener began as a Delftware painter with Delft Blue at De Porceleyne Fles. He now has more than half a century of experience and has grown into a versatile impressionist. Hovener has also been active as a teacher. In this way he managed to enthuse his half-brother, Peter van Berkel, for painting and to pass on the tricks of the trade to him. Peter van Berkel is known for his French landscapes.
